Cheers to the Cowboys for ending the Colts streak.

QuoteCowboys kicker Mike Vanderjagt, who spent the previous eight seasons with the Colts, missed two field goal attempts in the first half, including a 46-yarder at the end of the second quarter.

This guy's luck or skill is becoming questionable. One of the hottest chicks I met in Florida worked at his bar on Marco Island, FL.

And the Ravens are 8-2. B-More represent!

not really a Colts hater but rather inquisitor>last winter, after discovering Vanderjacts bar/restaraunt on Marco Island, FL. and then watching him choke in the moment of his life in the AFC final was kind of surreal. Obviously his bar is the football mecca on the island so it was weird to see the hometown hero choke.

there were more Steeler fans at Vandy's then Colts because 75% of the residents are from the NE. :wink:

Although the leagues highest career % leader, the Cowboys cut Vanderjact

question: if the Giants beat the Cowboys this weekend but still happen to finish 8-8, do they still make the playoffs? looking at the rest of the NFC, i'd have to say yes...

thoughts?

Yea, but im shocked they are doing as bad as they are. The Giants i thought at the begining of the season would woop ass, but i guess not. If Manning starts off strong for the rest of the season i can see them going to the playoffs but not going far. Also the NFC is in rough shape i dont think they have a chance in hell to beat any AFC team that makes it to the super bowl.

tet · December 02, 2006, 12:48:24 AM

true, but if they get healthy, ya never know. a lot of talent on the team... plus, once you're in the playoffs, everyone is 0-0. i almost hope we don't have home field advantage, because god knows what happens when we do...

i'm not gonna worry about that until after Sunday's game.

Quotei dunno about you, but I have learned the hard way not to get excited about a baseball team in the spring and a hockey team in the fall.

have to add don't get excited about the Giants in October to that list.
Hope they can turn it around :|

no way is an 8-8 team making the playoffs

well, think of it this way, the Giants are 6-5. they've got 3 remaining games against in-division opponents: Cowboys this weekend, Eagles next, and Redskins in week 17. they win 2 of 3 of those and there are the 8 wins, and right now they are 3-0 in the division - beating the Cowboys tomorrow would give them sole posession of 1st place since they would have now beaten them twice, and a significant lead over at least Philly and Washington. Philly isn't exactly in a position to challenge the Giants, but I am nervous that they will play up the rematch after what happened the 2nd week of the season. Then G-men play Carolina and New Orleans, 2 teams that are going to be fighting HARD for a playoff spot -- but two out of the division teams. So, let's say Giants lose both of those. That still leaves final game of the year against Washington, a pretty weak team. Giants then win the division, and it's beyond plausible that they are 8-8 at that point. Hell, I even consider it likely!

stranger things have happened. the 73 Mets went to the WS as division leader (no wild card then) 5 games over .500
